| When Ivan agreed in April 2002 to accept the pastorate, the church was filled with a real sense of peace and thankfulness to God. |
| The birds in the trees sang happily to her as she walked along, praising God with as much vigor and thankfulness as they could muster. |
| As such, the saints are hoping ardently for the Lord's second coming, in faith and thankfulness. |
| Life is given to us not for domination or self-centeredness, but for sharing, thankfulness, conviviality and joy. |
| Celebration and thankfulness matter, but should not push out real feelings of emptiness when we lose someone. |
| There is nothing that pleases the Father more, than to see His children full of joy and thankfulness! |
